Warning Signs

A federal judge blocked a requirement that would have required more prominent and graphic cigarette health warnings on all cigarette packaging and advertisements in the U.S. starting in September 2012. The warnings would have been the first change in cigarette warnings in more than 25 years. The new labels were part of the FDA's broader strategy to get people to quit smoking. The government has vowed to fight the ban. — Deborah Creighton Skinner
